Simon,
I am very much interesting in seeing this functionality...
Specifically, I would like to see a pluggable adapter approach to
templating... When Zend_Session gets into the incubator, I will have
time to donate to this effort.
I was asking (a day or two ago) who would be the best person to talk to
about Zend_View as getting an api ready to accept pluggable 'template
engines' would be an ideal solution to ending the smarty vs.
php-only-template arguments on the list.., anyone know who is the
Zend_View person or people are?
As Andi said, there exists a good argument for any templating solution
based on the consuming team, resources, and/or needs.
Perhaps default behavior is php-coded-templates with an option to do the
following:
$view = new Zend_View();
//optional code:
// implementation of engine interface
$tl = new Zend_View_Engine_TemplateLite();
$tl->setCompilesDirectory(...);
$tl->addPluginDirectory(...);
$view->setTemplateEngine($tl);
$view->display('templateLiteStyle.tpl');

FWIW I wrote a _very_ simple Smarty parser that actually turns the
templates into native Zend_View files. I've been meaning to work on it
some more but things are pretty tight at the moment. It only performs
variable replacement, includes and variable modifiers currently, but I
was looking to extend it to provide 60-80% of current Smarty functions
and make the parser more robust and more PHP5-like (allow chaining
properties/methods etc).
Is anyone interested in seeing it so far? It's only a proof-of-concept
but could perhaps spark something if anyone's interested in
improving/extending it?
Yes, Template Lite works on PHP 5 but its code itself is not PHP 5
compliant which is what Mark showed interest in porting it to.
Thanks,
